Live Streaming Food Stall… But in Dog-Blooded Novels – CH101

Chapter 101

Riding on the tricycle, Ye Qingquan’s emotions were incredibly complex.

In these brief few minutes, he recalled memories from long ago.

He had wanted to escape from Huo Ye, to leave this heart-wrenching city far behind, taking Lanlan with him to start a new life elsewhere.

But after returning to Beijing, the memories he thought he had long forgotten began to resurface.

Huo Ye, in every sense, was not a good person. But… those fleeting moments of gentleness—the way he draped a blanket over Ye Qingquan on cold nights, the way he held his hand and spoke in a soft voice…

As an orphan who had been alone since childhood, Ye Qingquan had felt the warmth of love for the first time in Huo Ye’s presence.

The moment he saw Madam Huo, Ye Qingquan’s first instinct was to run.

He would never forgive Huo Ye in this lifetime, nor would he let Lanlan acknowledge Huo Ye as his father. But…

What if Huo Ye had truly changed?

What if Huo Ye said he was willing to give up everything, just to live an ordinary, happy life with him and Lanlan as a family?

Ye Qingquan didn’t know how he would respond.

His mind was in complete turmoil.

And the more chaotic his thoughts became, the faster he pedaled the tricycle—wildly, recklessly, with no sense of direction.

The tiny tricycle zoomed through the streets, yet somehow, under Ye Qingquan’s control, it had the presence of a heavy-duty motorcycle.

The crowd of wailing foodies was left far behind in the dust.

The wind howled into the vehicle, the tricycle bouncing along the road with the intensity of a roller coaster, twisting and turning through every sharp bend.

Sitting in the back were Taotie and Jian Yunlan—a person and a dog.

“If… if you’re scared, you can hold my hand… paw.” Taotie spoke with feigned nonchalance, a hint of arrogance in his tone, but his face was pale, and his stomach churned violently.

Ye Qingquan’s driving skills were something else—he had even managed to make an ancient beast dizzy.

The little boy clung tightly to the edge of the cart, clearly hovering on the edge of death, his expression carrying a hint of resignation. “Lord Taotie, are you provoking me? I will not lose!”

Taotie: “…”

Though their bodies were young, their souls were still those of mature beings, allowing them to barely maintain a composed appearance.

But the one suffering the most was Hu Danggui, who was suspended at the top, inside the lotus lantern, resting to gather spiritual energy.

Jolted awake by the violent turbulence, the little girl inside the lantern screamed in terror, “What the hell?! Who am I? Where am I? Is this an earthquake?!!!”

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The intense shaking sent her flying around inside the lantern, bouncing off the walls like a pinball.

Ye Qingquan, drenched in sweat as he furiously pedaled, muttered, “Weird, where’s that noise coming from? Did a rock get stuck in the tricycle chain?”

There was no way he could slow down now.

What if he slowed down and got caught by the Huo family?!

With that thought, Ye Qingquan pedaled even harder.

Whenever he felt like he couldn’t push any further, he would stand up and pedal with all his might.

The tricycle’s wheels spun furiously, almost sparking from the sheer speed.

“Hel—p me—!” Hu Danggui screamed. “Master, Lord Taotie, Senior Brother, Buddha, God, yue—!”

But Jian Yunlan and Taotie, struggling just to keep themselves steady amidst the violent jolting, had no spare energy to take care of him.

Finally.

After slamming her forehead against the lantern walls for the fifty-seventh time, Hu Danggui stopped screaming.

Tears welled in her eyes as she reflected on her life.

Ever since she was transported to the Genius Baby is Three and a Half dimension and got separated from her master, she had endured endless hardships—

Due to this world’s unique buff, everyone appeared significantly younger than their actual age. Even the ancient beast Taotie had been reduced to a juvenile form. Hu Danggui, who was already young, was directly regressed to an infant-like state.

In that form, she had been left in the corner of a vegetable market.

For two whole days.

Completely unable to move!

After exhausting all her spiritual energy, Hu Danggui had no choice but to retreat into her lotus lantern and wait for her master to find her.

Her lotus lantern was an antique—an expensive one! She had worried that someone might pick it up and sell it. But fate had other plans. Drained of energy and unable to resist, she was ultimately found by a small-time vendor at the market.

And then… Ye Qingquan bought the lantern.

The moment she saw Ye Qingquan, Hu Danggui—an enlightened nine-tailed fox whose sworn mission was to awaken all love-struck fools—immediately sensed the overwhelming romance-obsessed brain energy radiating from him.

Ye Qingquan was the epitome of an old-school, angsty novel’s tragic protagonist.

He looked gentle and delicate on the outside, pure-hearted on the inside. No matter how cruelly the main top tormented him in the first half of the story—draining him emotionally and physically, treating him as a substitute—no matter how determined he was when he fled while pregnant, swearing never to have anything to do with that scumbag ever again…

It was all! A! Lie!

As someone with vast experience, Hu Danggui saw Ye Qingquan’s fate at first glance.

Even though he now insisted he wanted nothing to do with Huo Ye or the Huo family, the moment Huo Ye appeared before him—showing just the right amount of belated remorse and deep affection, showering their baby Lanlan with endless love and indulgence—Ye Qingquan’s heart would soften.

And in the end, all Huo Ye had to do was heroically step in during a crisis, even getting injured to protect Lanlan. Then, lying weakly in a hospital bed, he would murmur, “Qingquan, if you could just smile at me one more time, I’d give you my life…”

At that moment, Ye Qingquan’s defenses would completely collapse.

He wouldn’t even stop to question—if Huo Ye truly loved him so much, why had he ignored him for the past three years? Why did he only regret it after he returned with their child?

Ye Qingquan would deceive himself, choose to forgive, forget all the pain Huo Ye had caused him, and return to his side. And just like that, they would get their sweet, happily-ever-after ending.

From the moment she met Ye Qingquan, Hu Danggui had wanted to help him—to open his eyes to the truth behind these fake love stories.

But she was out of spiritual energy. Her hands were tied.

She had originally planned to gather power, regain her human form, and then start her intervention.

But now—getting thrown around inside a tricycle that felt like it was speeding straight to the underworld, her forehead covered in painful lumps—Hu Danggui had reached her breaking point.

As soon as the tricycle screeched to a stop in front of the apartment, Ye Qingquan rushed to bring Lanlan, the puppy, and the tricycle inside, locking all doors and windows. He even drew the blackout curtains, ensuring not a single crack was left for prying eyes.

“We have to move! Right away!” Ye Qingquan muttered anxiously, pacing as he pulled out his phone to find someone who could help. But the next second, his gaze landed on a certain number.

He hadn’t saved it. No name, no label.

And yet, even after all this time, that number was still burned into his memory.

Huo Ye’s number.

Ye Qingquan froze. His heart clenched, his mind dazed for a brief moment.

Then, in the next second—

His feet left the ground.

…Floating?!

Ye Qingquan: “?”

He looked around and found himself in what seemed to be another dimension.

It looked like a classroom, but everything had an ethereal, dream-like quality—vines creeping over the desks, a blackboard drifting through the air like a dark cloud, and roast ducks floating idly in the background.

And, of course—

Seated before him, dressed in a uniform…

A small fox.

A golden fox with nine fluffy tails.

It wore black-framed glasses, its fur ruffled, and its face slightly contorted. Pinned to its chest was a badge that read Disciplinary Committee.

“Student Number One, Ye! Qing! Quan!”

Ye Qingquan instinctively responded, “Present.”

The little fox nodded in satisfaction.

Taking a deep breath, it slapped a paw against the blackboard behind it.

“Now, let’s begin today’s lesson. Our first topic is—”

“What is the true nature of most romantic relationships?”

It paused slightly, seemingly waiting for Ye Qingquan to answer.

But faced with this utterly surreal scene, Ye Qingquan was too stunned to speak. He could only sit there in a daze, staring blankly at the little fox.

Silence.

An overwhelming, deathly silence.

The little fox cleared its throat.

It lifted its chin as if it didn’t feel the slightest bit of awkwardness and answered itself:

“—Lies!”

“That’s right, the essence of most love is lies!”

Listening to the little fox’s endless chatter, Ye Qingquan showed a look of half-understanding.

“……”

Meanwhile, inside Ye Qingquan’s apartment—

Jian Yunlan and Taotie, the two little boys, collapsed onto the floor, gasping for breath after their near-death experience.

“I never thought… a tricycle could be lethal,” Taotie muttered blankly. “I am as old as the heavens, fearless of anything, but just now—”

“Haha, almost died!” Jian Yunlan cut straight to the point.

The little boy lay sprawled on the floor, his deep blue-black eyes filled with exhaustion and despair.

Perhaps due to their juvenile forms, the entire world seemed overwhelmingly large to them, and even the tricycle’s jolting felt like an apocalyptic catastrophe.

The two of them lay on the floor in a spread-eagle position, staring at the ceiling.

Their hands accidentally brushed against each other.

Jian Yunlan didn’t think much of it, but Taotie hesitated for a moment.

After a while, he quietly turned his head to the side, a faint flush creeping up his cheeks.

“Human.” He spoke, then paused.

In his current form, he was the same three-heads-tall size as Jian Yunlan, his silver hair tied into a tiny ponytail at the back. His golden eyes were round and bright.

“I… I was thinking,” he managed to say three words before getting stuck again. His voice grew smaller. “Would you… um… if you have time… want to… go on a d—”

Jian Yunlan blinked. “Discount? What discount? Are you talking about the 11.11 sales?”

Taotie: “…..”

Jian Yunlan blinked in confusion, completely innocent.

Under his gaze, Taotie stammered. “No, I mean, humans your age… like to go out… watch movies, have dinner—”

Jian Yunlan: “Ohhh, company team-building? But we’re just a street food stall, is that really necessary?”

Taotie: “……”

He held back his frustration, but in the end, he couldn’t take it anymore. His face turned beet red as he snapped in frustration:

“I’m asking if you’d go out with me on a—”

But before he could finish—

A bull’s head suddenly emerged from the floor.

Jian Yunlan: “?”

Taotie: “?”

The bull-headed figure, holding a roast duck, scratched its head awkwardly. “Uh… did I come at a bad time?”
